It's me and the baby, in front of the congress in the capital of Brazil, BrasÃlia. Taken by her dad, who used to work in the building. But really, the most important feature of this photo, in my humble opinion, is this:
Can you all just admit to me that I have the COOLEST HANDBAG in the western hemisphere?
I mean, sure, the baby's cute and all, and the picture is well framed, but I picked up that handbag on a whim, on sale, the night before I left on the trip. $12. I haven't carried a handbag in years. Heck, a few years ago I was carrying my cash and credit cards along with my driver's license in a ziploc bag. For the whole world to see.
This, my friends, is a step up.
